Create Doggy Bags of Treats for Your Dog Clients

When you’re in the dog walking and pet sitting business, the best way to thank your client is not by shaking their paw—it’s with a yummy treat. Help your child put together doggy bags of biscuits by attaching customized Avery Square Labels with your kid’s business name and family home phone number onto food-safe bags so they can show their appreciation to furry clients and their human owners (after all, they’re the ones with the pocketbook).

Step 6: Ideas for using labels

Treat bags – attach the labels to food-safe bags filled with dog biscuits and bones and leave with your client as a token of your appreciation for their business.

Invoices – fold the invoice around an envelope for payment, and seal.

Greetings – send out personal messages to clients and use as a mailing label or to seal the envelope.
